On Wednesday, May 6, join with nurses across the country as we raise our voices to tell Congress: we can't wait for healthcare reform!
Call your member of Congress by dialing our toll-free Nurses Week hotline: 1-866-210-3678.
Use the script below to guide your conversation, and the form to the right to report back on your conversation.
Hello. My name is ___________. I'm a registered nurse living in your district and I'm a member of the Nurse Alliance of SEIU Healthcare.
I'm calling today because it's National Nurses Week and I want [Senator X] to know that I can't provide the care that every patient deserves because our healthcare system is so broken.
[Feel free to include an anecdote on a personal experience with your patients.]
Each and every day I see the cost of doing nothing. Congress must act now to provide quality, affordable healthcare to all.
OPTIONAL: As a nurse, I'm concerned about access to health care. Does my Senator support the public health insurance option?
Thank you!
